Going to do the Sarria to Santiago in November (2019).
Hi, I will do the last lag of the Camino Frances from Sarria to Santiago in November 2019.

Can I split the walking day from Portomarín to Palas into two days, and where will I find a place to sleep in the middle?

Thanks!
 
Technical backpack for day trips with backpack cover and internal compartment for the hydration bladder. Ideal daypack for excursions where we need a medium capacity backpack. The back with Air Flow System creates large air channels that will keep our back as cool as possible.

Hi, amgoich, and a Warm Welcome to the Forum.

These might be of help.


 
The one from Galicia (the round) and the one from Castilla & Leon. Individually numbered and made by the same people that make the ones you see on your walk.
The first edition came out in 2003 and has become the go-to-guide for many pilgrims over the years. It is shipping with a Pilgrim Passport (Credential) from the cathedral in Santiago de Compostela.
Down bag (90/10 duvet) of 700 fills with 180 g (6.34 ounces) of filling. Mummy-shaped structure, ideal when you are looking for lightness with great heating performance.

Hi,
I remember when I did it in sept 2015 I stopped at Ventas De Naron, a very small hamlet, with a very very old chapel.
There were 2 albergue but not sure if they would be opened in November.🤔

I stayed in Ventas de Naron, at Hostel Cruceiro. Nice place, really good hospitaleras, sisters, I think. Nice bar and restaurant. Their website says they are open all year except for January and February. Made for an easy walk to Palais dei Rei the next day.
 
Split the journey by taking 2 nights in Portomarin and taxying back - managed to walk through Ligonde on first day and then with such a short day from drop off point to Palas de Rei took in the detour to Vilar de Donas. We asked at Opcion if one of the 'guardians' would be there and had an exceptional tour by a 91 year old. I have a medical concern and this fitted our plans. Buen Camino!
 
I stayed at Pension Labrador in Hospital, just before Ventas de Narón. I remember it as a pleasant, pretty place. (September 2017)

I also suggest since you will have the time to take a 2 km detour each way and visit the Vilar de Donas church en route about 7 kms before Palas de Rei. The altar frescoes should be completely restored by now and it is well worth the side trip. You will see the sign.
